The Hodag Beanie is named for a mystical beast that roams the forests of northern Wisconsin! As a child (in the ‘60s and ‘70s), our family took summer trips to Rhinelander, Wisconsin and learned all about the legend of the Hodag. The Hodag Beanie features nostalgic shell and puff stitches, and the retro color palette completes the trip down memory lane. The slightly slouchy beanie has a cozy double brim and is topped with a purchased or DIY faux fur pompom.
